re: Any Sig Pro 2022 owners in the OB?
Posted by Rize on 6/15/25 at 11:18 am
Sig has a promo for 2 free mags that ends tomorrow if you bought it from a retail store.
I just got two free 21 round P365 mags this week. Took about a week for them to come in. Still had to pay around $30 I guess for shipping and taxes but it’s better than the $130 they would have charged.

Neighborhood Watch was a good one with Jack in it.
I watched both a couple weeks ago.

It’s not worth my time or taking up space to store a mower in my garage to mow my own grass. I do enough manual labor every couple of months taking care of others places I own and lease.

I have a feeling he will have some big moments coming up.

Tigers then anyone else not in the sec. Outside of Texas and LSU I hope every sec team loses in every sport every week.

I was too poor for nerf guns so we just threw horse shite balls at each other.

Company stock ended up going to $928 last year. I really regret selling those couple thousand shares back then :lol:

It’s been a while but it was either the OB board or TBH but I got criminal history sent to me and a bunch of dirt on the guy.

I can rep out a bench press five times in a row of 225 but can only 1RM at 320 on squat.
I can probably bench more than I can squat and deadlift :lol:

Everything private equity touches usually turns to shite for the consumer. More expensive for a worse experience. I fully expect buyer's remorse.
I just dipped my toes into PE here in Texas and it’s been great so far. I hear all these horror stories of PE but so far it seems to be going well.

Spend the money for a good blind or hunt behind a brushed in pallet.

We drive pretty reasonable vehicles relative to income. My wife has a 2024 Accord. Honestly, the ones that were a year or two old with 30k miles on them were close enough price-wise to new ones that I'd rather just have the warranty. She drives little enough where we'll get the full 3-5 years out of it.
I wish I could do that. I’ve always liked nice cars so it’s usually something I spend more money than I should on.
It’s for sure a want vs a need. I run the dog shite out of my sales car for work and keep it for 10 years but my wife’s suv and my truck usually don’t see more than 60k miles before I get rid of them.

Then shame on you. It’s in your employee handbook and if your company is giving free money you damned well should know what the match is.
I’ve been there 23 years :lol:
I’m getting it just don’t know the percentage matched. I’m not sure if it’s set in stone because it changes every year.
I put in my typical 12k to 14k and they usually put in 20k to 23.5k on top of what I put in. Last year for some reason it was only 14k but 2023 was almost 24k so it really is all over the place.
I just read and our board of directors determine the amount of 401k match every year so I have no clue what it’s going to be every year. It seems to be 3% to 5% every year but then the esop and profit sharing make up the rest.
re: Nilgai Meat
Posted by Rize on 6/8/25 at 6:53 pm
My brother or me typically shoot one or I let a buddy shoot one and we split the meat. We try not to run out of Nilgai meat because it’s great stuff but I can’t eat a large bull by myself with the whitetail and axis I have.
